Dwell on Design recently announced new programming. The annual fair will host 300 exhibitors in 100,000 sq ft of the Los Angeles Convention Center, June 23-25. The event also offers three days of onstage programming from the top leaders in design, as well as, continuing education opportunities for every design discipline.
The first new featured speaker series, architect Sir David Adjaye, of Adjaye Associates, built the firm’s reputation with global commissions, including the Nobel Peace Centre in Oslo, Norway, and the Moscow School of Management in Russia. Most recently, Adjaye gained recognition for his design of the Smithsonian Institute National Museum of African American History and Culture, which opened in fall 2016 at the National Mall in Washington, DC. Adjaye has held academic posts at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and was awarded the prestigious Panerai London Design Medal in 2016. Adjaye will present on Friday, June 23rd, with Christopher Hawthorne, architecture critic for the Los Angeles Times.
